The application

SQLBI Whiteboard does not create an account, does not join a tenant, and does not send telemetry. There is no Application Insights, no crash reporter, and no outbound product analytics in the source.

A Microsoft Store install never phones home. The Store updates it. Any other copy may ask this site once a day whether a newer build exists.

• Check for new versions is on by default; turn it off under Help → Preferences → Updates.
• A GET of stable.json, or dev.json for a pre-release copy, the same file the download page uses.
• If that fails, a request to github.com for the newest release tag.
• The User-Agent carries the product version. Nothing else is sent.

Boards are local .wboard files. Preferences live under %APPDATA%\SQLBI\Whiteboard (or Whiteboard Dev for the pre-release channel).

LiveView uses Windows Graphics Capture on this machine. The capture permission cannot be saved with the file. After you reload a board, the last frame is shown from the file; Reconnect asks Windows again.

This website

The site is static HTML on GitHub Pages. It does not set a first-party cookie and it has no consent banner.

• The download button on the home page reads stable.json from this site so the installer link can carry the current version. If that file is missing, it asks api.github.com. Without scripting, the same links go to the GitHub releases page.
• The changelog page asks api.github.com to list published releases.
• The teaser on the home page is a video file served from this site. Playing it contacts no third party.

What we do not do

• No advertisements.
• No sale of data.
• No cloud sync of boards.
